This fun, social camp has a strong emphasis on social communication skills, making friends, team building, trying new things, and fostering a love of reading. Group morning activities will follow a predictable routine including Getting to Know You, Creative Time, Get up and Move, and Team Time. Each participant will spend 30 minutes every morning working on individual reading goals with a BC
Certified teacher in a one to one setting. Afternoon group activities will include Bollywood Dance, Hatha Yoga, Language Express, Fit Groove, and will end the day with Campfire Chats.

The program is organized into two sessions that are each two weeks long. Participants are welcome to register for one session or both sessions. The program is supervised by an experienced DSRF staff member, in the role of summer school coordinator, who will be assisted by university students hired as summer school assistants. Young adult volunteers will also be on hand to foster an inclusive atmosphere that reflects the interests of teens and young adults and to model pro-social behaviour. Specialized program instructors will lead the afternoon group activities.

Participants must be between the ages of 13 to 25 and be successful in a group environment.
